USMCA Key to Ontario Stellantis Plant’s Future, Carney Says

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Stellantis NV will decide on future vehicle production at its factory in Brampton, Ontario, once a review of the North American free trade deal is finalized.

Carney said he spoke with Antonio Filosa, chief executive officer of Stellantis, shortly before the company announced that it canceled plans to make the Jeep Compass sport utility vehicle in Brampton, which is near Toronto. That vehicle will instead be manufactured in Illinois, avoiding US tariffs.
